Are you sure it is from Cuba ? I have unusually decent propagation to Asia
in the last few hours ...

I am hearing the pointless music transmission I often complain about from
the Cuban relay of CRI. Posting this at 2330 UT with Chinese elevator
music coming in over NHK World on 13650. So Quivican must be back up.

| 'JOY' starting in November from Kostinbrod on 11935 kHz |
|
Wednesday, September 28 2022

'JOY' starting in November from Kostinbrod on 11935 kHz Rising costs will force "JOY" to change transmitters from November 2022 and
to the frequency 11935 kHz in the 25 m band of shortwave. The frequency, known for best reception possibilities, promises for the
'Charlie-Prince-Show' similar good reception conditions as the previous
location near Vienna! The transmitter of Spaceline Ltd, which is again operated by the German
MEDIA BROADCAST, is located in Kostinbrod near Sofia in Bulgaria. 'JOY' ab November aus Kostinbrod auf 11935 kHz Steigende Kosten zwingen ?JOY? ab November 2022 zu einem Senderwechsel und
auf die Frequenz 11935 kHz im 25-m-Band der Kurzwelle. Die für beste Empfangsmöglichkeiten bekannte Frequenz verspricht für die
'Charlie-Prince-Show' ähnlich gute Empfangsbedingungen wie der bisherige
Standort bei Wien! Der erneut von der deutschen MEDIA BROADCAST vermittelte Sender der
Spaceline Ltd steht in Kostinbrod bei Sofia in Bulgarien. Vy 73s! _

| Cuba radio silence amid electric grid failure due to Hurricane Ian |

I was able to weakly hear the Cuban jammer on 6030 against Radio Marti earlier, but it is gone now. Arnie needs to peddle faster on his bicycle generator.

re: To Black Cat Yankee - re 'peddle faster' A little more respect for life's work and age could also be expected from
W3HFU fellow. re RadioCuba Broadcasts and technical Installations, despite everything, you have to admire the dictatorship executors there,
how they still use like exUSSR relay Bejucal site from the 70s with modest
means, the newer Chinese installations in the new Chinese plants
at Bauta are not doing too badly either, and the CRI Relay in Quivican
is still using the audio-feeders of the better two transmitters #1 and #5. Glenn is already right in his judgement of the RHC / Rebelde broadcasts,
the often low-level modulation on some days is also due to a lottery game,
which interference-ridden feeder line between the radio broadcast
house in the capital and the broadcasting centre in the is used low wide
landscape. comment on RHC service of April 2019
I got to visit RHC in 2016 and saw with my own eyes how primitive of an
operation things are (i.e. they are still using typewriters for much of
the postal correspondence with listeners). The fact that RHC, Radio
Progreso and Radio Rebelde are able to successfully transmit at all in
light of the embargo (which blocks Cuba from getting even repair parts for
their transmitters without working through third countries) is a wonder
and a testament to the tenacity of the Cuban radio.
Obviously not all of the problems at RHC can be blamed on the embargo, of
course, but I prefer their programming to the overwhelming majority of
what is being aired on SW these days. Certainly much better than VOA and
Radio Marti.

Mail of November 2019, of further Bejucal plans:
We are exploring the possibility of starting an old transmitter on around
3300 kiloHertz, 90 meters band... with simple non directional antenna,
similar to the 60 meters tropical band antenna.
Last e-mail: Since autumn 2019 in a wheelchair after a serious operation.
I am tied to a nice wheel chair ... can walk a few steps only and with
pain, but can work very well and tutor my students at the post graduate
level.
re Prof. Arnaldo Coro Antich
CO2KK my ham radio station covers from 160 meters to 70 centimeters,
but the power is limited to 5 Watts, using CW. SSB and digital modes... born on July 2nd in 1942, now 80 years of age.

now came to an end in life - in May 2020. Last Arnie radio matter e-mail received here in Europe in July 2020. The re-erection of an old exUSSR 50kW SW 'sweetheart' for the mx station
Radio Progreso on the frequency 4765 kHz in Bejucal was its last
recognisable achievement for the international shortwave audience. Thank You Arnie. 73 wolfy df5sx ----- Original Message -----
